Yes Jeremy.

 

At 74%, completed DL darts scrolls, working on the ring now, 0/4 and 34/100/

 

@ Urza, wow, your luck must have been really against you if you only got that many pearls with cook... I have yet to complete any of the new stories (except for the "meet the... " ones)

Wait I don't think it was the finale. It was the single adventure reward which originally rewarded 17 pearl and 7 spice.

 

Also I'm 35/100 pearl and 2/4 scrolls for levi ring.

Didn't even know Tip.it had one, I've been using another since they first came out but I don't know who made it or if they will ever update it.

Yup about 2 months in and the inkling that this could be coded to immensely help players came to mind. The right players just happened to be on the old POP topic to see the call to arms. That was probably the guy who coded yours.

If by configurator you mean mine, then I am going to update it, I've just been busy.
... And that would be the guy I was refering to! Hey Veiva, I'm glad you confirmed it for others.

It was the Cook's finale most likely, since no single adventurer story gave any rewards until the very last (6th).

Just sent leviathan ring scroll 4/4 at 92%. Pretty stoked, but I wish I had more pearl.

 

I guess I'll be doing everything else with story voyage < pearl < scroll < koi scale < other trade good as priorities.

The first people will be hitting the Looper region later today already. :o.

 

I myself am @ 89% currently.. Only difference is I didn't send out a new mission as soon as a ship came back.. :/. (during work, etc). I also fail missions .. They have magical ships that never fail! 

Looking forward to seeing the new crew members.

in some ways I feel being marginally behind on ports is a good thing - you get to see the crew and such before you get there and have greater time to formulate a good plan rather than floundering blindly with new crew and such.

Just being in the new region doesn't help in making money fast. Story missions are much better in that way(The last trio has been confirmed to give 50/50 perls/koi). Also- as already said before, success doesn't matter in gaining distance.

 

I'll be entering the Loop tomorrow afternoon(in around 14 hours), along with 8 scrolls and 18 story(trio missions are damn hard to get).

Unless it changed, you still get distance even if you fail.

So, I've been thinking.

 

 

Would it be feasible to send out ships on regular voyages, with a low chance of success, as long as you don't have any crew sans captain? If you fail, you still gain distance, and if you lose, well, most resources don't matter anymore

You can send out ships with dummy captains, yes, but there's a chance you'll end up in the drydock and have to pay for repairs, and you'll lose out on trade goods for sale at the Trader, so it's not worth it if you value gp at all. That is assuming you take a negligible amount of time to send ships with appropriate crews compared to sending them with random crews.

Just got my last scroll to complete leviathan ring. So now I have the cape and ring done at 66% to the loop.

 

I also sent 4 and 1 pearl voyages. If they come back successful I'll be 40/100 pearl for sup leviathan ring.

So, what? You guys are still out of the Loop?

Loop.png

The min time for a loop voyage is 9:51 and the max solo difficulty 25.6k stat(scroll/trade good).

Of the 11 rerolls i had i only got 50 and 75 terracotta missions.

The terracotta merchant is apparently 33.33% and trade good missions give 6 per(7 with merch).

So with a terracotta merchant you'd expect 8 trade goods per mission? That's pretty nice. 50 and 75 terracotta is absolutely horrible though, steel starts at 140 :o.

Don't ports always round down? Meaning the 33.33% on 6 a would make 7.9 rounded down to 7.
